Waffles from a Spray Can: A Quick Addendum

It seems that the spray can waffles were more pervasive than I thought, and there have been quite a few new developments on this front that I felt compelled to share.


1) My good buddy Jean emailed me today from Boston to let me know that she spotted the Batter Blaster in that bastion of all things healthy, Whole Foods. Now, I know they're organic, but did they miss the memo that this is BATTER that SPRAYS from a CAN? I mean, I'd think that's basically the most unholy delivery device there is when you look at it from a natural foods perspective. Nonetheless, I present the photographic evidence. Good work, Jeanerz.




2) My good buddy Jesica emailed me to tell me that she thought she saw somewhere that the Batter Blaster actually got the Goodhousekeeping Seal of Approval. In order to verify this, I thought I'd see if I could find a Web page for Batter Blaster -- and boy did I ever. On the home page not only do they have an awesome jingle that plays as soon as you connect AND a demo video, there is also a graphic for a special offer on Batter Blaster for "Fans of the John Tesh Radio Show." There is also a link to where the Batter Blaster was demonstrated on Regis and Kelly.

Please, enjoy for yourself at www.batterblaster.com.

All I can say is, although I have not confirmed the Good Housekeeping thing one way or the other, all of you John-Tesh-listening, Whole-Foods-shopping, Regis-and-Kelly-watching folks out there are more than welcome to my last can of Batter Blaster. In this house, we're eating the Bisquick kind.

  2. I just found the most amazing bizarre story, and I import it here just for you! To wit: GLENDALE, Ariz. - An Arizona woman said she was given peace and comfort from an unlikely source -- a pancake bearing an image she said resembles the Virgin Mary. Bianca Lopez said she was cooking Batter Blaster pancakes for her family a few days before Thanksgiving at their Glendale home and she noticed the image of Jesus' mother looking back at her from the final pancake of the batch, KNXV-TV, Phoenix, reported Thursday. "I think it's God's way of telling us that the holidays aren't just about presents. It's about... spending time with your family and friends and telling us to not forget about him, that he's always there watching over us and taking care of us," Lopez said. Lopez said she is keeping the pancake safe in her freezer until she can decide what to do with it.

    Huh. Yeah. Not for nothing, Bianca, but I have a suggestion for what you can do with it . . . . And Amanda et al, isn't it wonderful to know that not only does the Heavenly Father note the fall of every sparrow, but that the Holy Mother inhabits the aerosol cans at Whole Foods? Praise be.
